Don't waste your money
on January 18, 2026
Posted by: Sue26
This bread machine is not worth the money. The screw that holds on the lid dropped out when I took it out of my cabinet (why would this even happen??), of course then it fell off my counter and the plastic parts of the lid broke. Even with that it still runs but It seems there is no way to get the screw back in. Why make a machine that isn't fixable? Not good Cuisinart!
Response from cuisinart.comBy Cuisinart, January 21, 2026
We are very sorry to hear about the issues you experienced with your bread machine and understand how frustrating this must be. It sounds like the lid came loose in an unexpected way, which can certainly be disappointing. Our Consumer Assistance team can provide guidance on reattaching parts or discuss replacement options to get your machine working properly. Please contact them at 1-800-726-0190 for assistance.

I have made 3 loaves and they are horrible. I am new to this and I do not know what is wrong. I am done with it. Trash can for it. I probably will never buy a bread machine again. Its not for me.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We bought this to replace an old machine and were not disappointed! It makes the same size loaves but takes up half of the counter space. The recipe book it comes with makes excellent bread and is very easy to understand. The parts are able to be washed with ease, especially since this machine doesn't leave anything on the bottom to scrape up.
I would recommend this to a friend!

This machine is not as good as I had hoped. After three tries and three bread failures, I am about to give up. I've had two previous bread machines and both made very delicious bread and rolls and even pizza crust, but this machine has not delivered. The recipes aren't as good as the ones in my previous machines.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Proportions of ingredients of Bread recipe is not good. that makes very dense bread. reduce the quantity to make more light bread. machine works fine but because of wrong mix quantity does not make good breads.
